Hi, im new here, and i plan on maybe doin a perpetual grow like this. I wont have the mother plants untill the 2nd harvest. 1st time around im groing from seeds, then cloning whichever female looks the best and keepin her short and bushy. My only real concern is:

1)Is the 465 cfm enough? Ill probably add random fans into the walls to keep the temp down, the pic just shows kind of the overall idea.

2)The way i have my grow timed out, i wont be needing the veg room the entire time, what type of lighting do you think would be enough to keep 2 females in veg mode? I just dont want to use 400w when i dont have to. Ill try to keep the moms as small as possible, and because i wont be needing clones every week, i think i can afford to keep pruning all the time.

Any comments/suggestions that might help would be cool, this will be my fisrt grow so im still not 100% sure on everything.

Hey POPE...
a 465 will cool a 1000watt hps ...NO PROBLEM... it mayeven be over kill.
How close is the fan to the BULB?
How far are you blowing the air?

Hey knowm, ill probably have it like ~1 ft away from the 600w, this air is gonna continue through the ducts to cool down the 400w too, so about 5-7 feet(maybe allow for some slack) or so.
